\n\tIt depends on what time of year it is, whether I am base training, recovering or building up to a block of races. Week to week it is always different, the intensity of the week is also determined by the importance (UCI points) of the event.<\/em>
\n\t\u00a0
\n\tWhat is your favourite place to ride and why?<\/span><\/strong>
\n\tI don\u2019t have a particular favourite place to ride, I\u2019ve been lucky enough to ride a few bike parks around the world and I must say I\u2019ve enjoyed them all equally. If I need to choose then Mont Saint Anne in Canada has been one of the best.<\/em>\n<\/p>\n![\"IMG_2686.jpg\"](\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_2686.83e21ce20383d3ed63304a878395f318-1.jpg\")
\n\t\u00a0
\n\tDo you have any good travelling tips for fellow cyclists?<\/strong><\/span>
\n\tUse a bike bag to put all your extra gear in. Due to the strength and sturdiness of my Thule bike bag I normally put some equipment and other items in there with the bike as I know it is all going be safe.<\/em>\n<\/p>\n
\n\t\u00a0
\n\tWhat is your favourite piece of travel gear?<\/strong><\/span>
\n\tMy Thule backpack. I dig all the small pockets on the bag where I can put all my necessary travel appliances, valuables and other small items. Its main compartment is large and has enough space for a laptop, change of clothes and even a pair of shoes.<\/em>
\n\t\u00a0
\n\tCan you give us a quick rundown of your current racing bike set-up?<\/strong><\/span>
\n\tTrek supercaliber 9.9 with Sram AXS, Bontrager Kovee Pro rims equipped with Bontrager XR3 2,4 tyres. All other components are Bontrager.<\/em>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t![\"IMG_4951.jpg\"](\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_4951.def503c51ac7651a04a5339ff46e1a9a-1.jpg\")

\n\tI use the Thule Easy Fold XT. I love how I can fold the bike rack in half and put it out of the way in the corner of the garage but I also love its sleek styling. It also adds some flavour when you put it on the car!<\/em>
\n\t\u00a0
\n\tWhat do you enjoy doing when you\u2019re not out riding bikes?<\/strong><\/span>
\n\tI love getting an adrenaline rush and am a real adrenaline junkie! \u00a0Whether that is doing flips while jumping off cliffs, riding motorbikes or riding jet skis – It\u2019s all about enjoying life!<\/em>
\n\t\u00a0
\n\tWhat does your racing calendar look like for the remainder of 2022?<\/strong><\/span>
\n\tThe XCO calendar is winding down for 2022, however, three consecutive big races are coming up with the Proffix Swiss Cup in Basel, Switzerland this weekend as a leg tester before World Champs in Les Gets, France. This is followed by the last round of the UCI World Cup Series in Val Di Sole, Italy. I will then be coming back to South Africa and taking a nice rest off the bike before entering some local road races to start off the base training for the 2023 season.<\/em>\n<\/p>\n![\"PHOTO-2022-07-18-14-19-21-1.jpg\"](\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/PHOTO-2022-07-18-14-19-21-1.764c199e1eddb00f78d063d89cf13f7b-1.jpg\")
